Rabadia Smashes Century-Old Record in Thrilling Rawalpindi Test
Rawalpindi, Pakistan – South African fast bowler Kagiso Rabada stunned cricket fans with a blistering batting performance in the second Test against Pakistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. On the third day of the match, Rabada, batting at number 11, smashed a remarkable 71 runs off just 61 balls, including four boundaries and four towering sixes.
Rabada’s innings wasn’t just entertaining; it was record-breaking. He surpassed Bert Vogler’s 119-year-old record to become the highest-scoring number 11 batsman for South Africa in Test cricket. Vogler had scored an unbeaten 62 against England in 1906.
His score is also the fifth-highest ever recorded by a number 11 batsman in Test history, just behind Ashton Agar, Tino Best, James Anderson, and Zaheer Khan.
Rabada’s counter-attacking knock was part of a crucial 98-run partnership for the tenth wicket with Senuran Muthusamy (89 not out).
The South African team scored 404 runs against Pakistan’s 333 runs which resulted in 71 run lead in the first innings.
Pakistan won the first test of the series by 93 runs in Lahore.
